Draft could limit Billups' choices to two

Krista Jahnke astutely points out that a few draft day moves eliminated most of the potential suitors for Chauncey Billups.

June 28, Detroit Free Press: The draft also seemed to clear up some questions when it comes to Chauncey Billups' free agency. Memphis, expected to be a major player on the free-agent market, took point guard Mike Conley Jr., filling its need. Charlotte's cap room shrunk considerably by dealing for Richardson.

That leaves Milwaukee as the most likely -- and the only? -- real suitor for Billups' services.

Yes, Milwaukee could possibly make a run at Billups, but I expect this just amped up the odds he returns to Detroit from about 80% to 95%. It's possible with the smaller market for his services that Billups' price tag will dip a little, but that's probably more wishful thinking than anything.
